Rabat, Morocco
St Peter’s Cathedral, Rabat

A sleek, all-white Roman Catholic church with gorgeous Art Deco architecture.

Situated in the sprawling city of Rabat, St Peter’s Cathedral is a distinctive building against the bright blue city skyline. Built in a chic style unconventional of churches, St Peter’s Cathedral features two looming spire-tipped towers on one face and a sequence of gabled roofs on the other. The church is decorated in clean-cut minimalism where laser-cut geometric aestheticism reign, making for a gorgeous photography subject at any angle for any city hopper. This style pervades even the interior décor of the church, dressed entirely in white with pleasing wood accents. Within the church, you can soak in its serenity as you admire its vivid stain glass ensconcing the hall or attend mass with other churchgoers. Out of place in a predominantly Muslim country, St Peter’s Cathedral is a must-see as one of the few churches in Morocco.
